Wingnoodle! Yes, Fluffles Ascension has brought with it a pair of feathery wings, officially making him a quatl. Hes gotten a bit bigger, too. He was around six feet long before, but now hes pushing ten. Itll be a tighter fit for him in so of the snake tunnels now, especially with those wings, but he should still be able to get around with ease.
His MP bar also looks different in that its not there anymore. He seems a little curious about that, too, as he levitates a couple nearby rocks. I can feel the tiniest trickle of my mana being used when he does. He uses my mana to cast stuff now? Thats probably made him my most dangerous scion by far. If he has my full pool of mana to draw on, the snek could probably levitate things all day without breaking a sweat. I wouldnt want him to waste my mana like that, though.
He seems to co to the sa conclusion, and I tell him to head down to the public war room to introduce himself. In the anti, Yvonne answers Elf Guys question as best she can.
Fluffles is, as you know, the snake scion. Hes a magic user, mostly force, I think. Im no mage. He and Teemo here both tend to wander the Dungeon and tend to various tasks, though Teemo is usually blazing new trails.
She smiles at the rat scion on her shoulder, and even gives him so little pets before continuing. Teemo is the rat scion and Scout. Hes always exploring the Dungeon and creating shortcuts for the denizens and even residents. He, Fluffles, and Tiny were all involved in the raid on Neverrest. He tried to save when the skeleton scion threw a lifedrinking sword at . If not for the enchantnt, he would have succeeded in that, too.
So youre actually undead? asks Freddie, looking confused. Ive heard rumors, but nobody actually believes them. Yvonne sighs and nods.
I am. The Dungeon was able to help return. The Raven gave the choice of returning, or going to my final reward, and I chose to stay.
Nobody really has any reply to that, which I find kinda interesting. I would have thought Freddie would want to grill Yvonne about what the afterlife was like, or about this Raven or sothing, but no. I guess the crystal shield church doesnt really deal with ferrying souls? Either way, that seems to have answered his question so thoroughly that it just leaves a bit of an awkward silence. You cant just follow up soone telling about how they died and ca back with asking how their day was.
Thankfully, Fluffles shows up not long after, and Elf Guys professional deanor gets things rolling again.
Snake Scion has Ascended to be a quatl. Has Conduit title, so at the very least, Fourdock has Subsud a dungeon. Scion is nad Fluffles, and despite the unassuming na, the Scion should not be engaged in combat. If it was able to reach any dungeons core, let alone Neverrests, it was a strong Scion even before Ascending.
Fluffles likes the praise and coils into a very satisfied position as Elf Guy makes his voice notes, or reports to soone, or however the rock actually works. The kids just look at my wingnoodle with definite looks of awe, which only makes Fluffles happier.
All right you snekbird, thats enough basking in adoration. Jellos been running around as quickly as she can to try to keep the tunnels clear of invaders. She could use your help down there. He nods to the nothing that is , and nods at Yvonne and Teemo as well, before flapping his wings and gliding down the tunnels. I think hes looking forward to actually putting his new abilities to the test.
They all head through the tunnels and Yvonne gives what basic information that she can about the other scions, which gives an idea for sothing to do once I get delvers back and making mana. Elf Guy just continues speaking notes into the rock and asking questions, most of which I have Teemo nod to.
The only real thing I flat out refuse to give him info on is my core location, and the other secret rooms. Thats for Residents only. I dont think Elf Guy would do anything nefarious with the info, but I dont know every single person in the Office of Dungeon Affairs. Even in a fantasy world, bureaucracy will get corrupt. I dunno what a normal delver would be able to do with my core, but Im in no hurry to find out.
He stops trying to wheedle that kind of info out of Yvonne, between encounters with slis, once they reach the crypt complex, and he starts taking notes on the surroundings again, as Yvonne leads them around the various deadly traps.
Confirm that Neverrest had nurous potent and deadly traps in its catacombs. Also confirm that all appear to be wearing off. This corroborates the Residents claim Fourdock has no interest in those traps and has set these to expire. Recomnd catacombs be off limits for approximately a month, and recomnd scheduling the next inspection for that ti.
They get close to the Enclave, and Elf Guy and the kids all seem surprised to see the ratlings standing guard at the doorway.
Ratling Enclave encountered, appears advancent will be finishing shortly. He looks to Yvonne to see if she has anything to add, which she does.
Aranya said she wishes to do so ritual with them later, once she awakens. She tried to explain it to , but Im not sure what it actually entails. I only understood that it should finish the advancent of the ratlings and make them a true Enclave. The inspector nods at that and speaks to the rock again.
Enclave will likely finish advancent tonight, much more quickly than any other enclave Im personally aware of. Likely due to guidance of Resident Aranya. Recomnd delvers stay away from Enclave unless specifically invited. There are guards posted, and though they have made no advances towards us, I doubt they would be so passive if we actually wanted to enter. Looks like ratlings will be Ratkin Dwellers.
You what? Everyone else seems to think that explains everything, but I dont! Thankfully, I have a library not far from here, and a bunch of bees to deliver a ssage! Ill just spend a little mana and write why cant I write? I did it before! Maybe if I make it a quest? I try to focus harder on the little scrap of paper in the library, but all I feel is a weird equivalent to a headache as it feels like sothing else talks to ? Its just a concept in my mind, a quick bit of information, but Im pretty sure I didnt put it there.
Dungeons may only communicate via their Voice
What was that?!
And whats a Voice?
